Land's End to John O'Groats

Post by CDS » Mon Mar 28, 2016 11:09 am

Stumbled across this today on Facebook 27th-31st July 2016. I can't make it as we'll be on holiday, but seems like a good event :thumbright: with worthy causes

Not sure the kids and family will be up for it so might have to find a wingman as 800 odd miles on yer own might be a bit bland.

I wasn't planning on stopping! I'd already thought I'd need to buy an extended range fuel tank.

Would love to do this. It would certainly be an opportunity to blow the cobwebs out of the engine as well as supporting some good causes but sadly the dates don't work out for me
